Talking to Myself

Talking to Myself

A Poem by Ethan Talby

What's the point of walking through these halls anymore
When all I ever come across is my echo and locked doors?
What's stopping me from dying right here on the floor?
Shut the f**k up you're sounding so selfish
Always whining about how you're talking to yourself it's
Pathetic, so stop crying for a death wish
Wait a minute, hold up, who are you?
Cause if what you're saying is true
Then I should be happy even if the world's blue?
Yes!! This is all your usual common sense
Yet you seem to be on the defense
Even though you're on the field, not on the fence
But every bridge I try to cross is already aflame
Every single time it's always the same
Am I going insane? Whose to blame?
Oh my God, you don't get it! It's your fault
You have to set your f*****g mind on default
And treat people like a bank vault
So what you're saying is I need to treat them right
And not pressure them or they might
Lock me out and keep their treasures out of sight
See now you're f*****g thinking
Don't let those suicidal thoughts keep sinking
And just keep filling your cup with whatever you're drinking
You're right. I need to stand up on my own feet
Separate my friends from the creeps
And dance to my own beat
F**k yeah. Now yin and yang have combined to become one
I am my own sky complete with moon and sun
Let's get this game started. Three, two, one.
